Stiff Exposure Comp Dial

Just wondering if anyone finds that their exp comp dial is stiff. Mine has a sticky spot. If I turn it counter-clockwise, on the 10th click it gets really tight. If I push through it, it's ok again but then the pattern continues. I have not spilled anything on the camera. I will live with it for now as long as it doesn't get worse. It's summer and I'm using it a lot but I will likely send it to Olympus for repair later in the year.
